Citas de The Execution Factor
Success rarely follows a linear path-it's a messy line to the top requiring continuous action.
You can fake knowledge and skills, but you can't fake passion.
Passion isn't simply about doing what you love; it's about willingly enduring suffering for what matters most.
The most common mistake is not dreaming big enough.
Passion means making things happen despite obstacles, even when it involves 'a lot of horse manure.'
